Welcome Media Lead Staff!
This page has been set up to provide you with training and resources you will need to serve successfully during your week at JP. Some of your bigger responsibilities that you will have daily during your week at JP:
Pictures & Slide Shows
You are responsible for taking pictures and creating daily slide shows. Although you will be working the first part of the day at a work site, you are to spend the second half visiting worksites for the purpose of taking photos of the work teams.
Gathering Pitctures
Since we have internet capabilities at the 4H Center this summer, we will be able to have pictures emailed to the JP staff Gmail account. This should make it much easier to download pictures directly from the email account on the presentation computer. We will give adult leaders the email account so that they can send in pictures throughout the day.
Slide Shows.
A slide show should be the length of a standard song: 3-4 minutes long. This equates to about 40 pictures for a typical slide show.
Sound Tracks.
We encourage you to create a playlist of (Christian) songs to be used to accompany the slide show on your phone (or another staffer's phone) and simply play the song along with the slide show.
Making Slide Shows
While you are at JP we expect ALL Media Leads to follow JP procedures for creating slide shows by using OpenShot. You will be trained in camp and will have a step-by-step procedure to follow to create and then import into MediaShout.
Schedule
When you get back to camp, (and after a nice shower!), you will want to go to the worship space to create your slide show and have it done for the evening program.
Presentation Software.
MediaShout 7 is our presentation software and you need to be familiar with it so that you can confidently serve each night for evening program. Note that everything will be loaded into MediaShout for you each day. Much of what you'll be doing is advancing the slides as needed.
